History:
The community began in 1974 when R.B. Fitch and his late wife Jenny purchased the two-centuries old dairy farm from Jesse Fearrington. Jesse inherited the farm that was started by his great-great grandfather, William Cole who staked out a 640-acre claim in 1786. They named the community Fearrington to honor the stewardship of Jesse and his forebears. The Fitches slowly began to craft a unique community where residents would enjoy dining, relaxing, shopping and living.
